Description 1.) Information security is one of the top issues in today’s business environment. Businesses who thought they did not need to spend company resources for information security are now finding out the hard way that they were wrong. Information security is the protection of information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification or destruction. A threat to an information resource is any danger to which a system may be exposed. The exposure of an information resource is the harm, loss, or damage that can result if a threat compromises that resource. An information resource’s vulnerability is the possibility that the system will be harmed by a threat. – Does the security burden fall primarily on the user?

Recall the last time you bought something in a store. What information did you provide the cashier, either directly or indirectly? Did the cashier ask for your ZIP code or phone number? How did you pay? Cash? Credit or debit card? Do you have a customer loyalty card for the store? Did you use it? Did you have to show any form of ID (i.e. driver’s license)? All of this and more is captured, along with information about the items you bought, in the stores data management systems. Big Data refers to the vast and constantly increasing amounts of data that modern organizations need to capture, store, process, and analyze.

While the term may seem to reference the volume of data, that isn’t always the case. The term big data may refer to the technology (which includes tools and processes) that an organization requires to handle the large amounts of data and storage facilities. – It is possible to find many Web sites that provide demographic information. Access several of these sites and see what they offer. Do the sites differ in the types of demographic information they offer? How? Do the sites require a fee for the information they offer? Would demographic information be useful to you if you wanted to start a new business? If so, how and why? Compare these web sites and choose one that you would use if you were to start a business.
